Forged in the flicker of CRT screens and the pulse of early code, this 1998 digital collage stands as a luminous artifact from the dawn of artistic computation. A hot air balloon—emblazoned with a mythic dragon—floats defiantly across a backdrop of fractured Latin inscriptions, where ancient stone whispers meet pixelated rebellion.

🪶 The work juxtaposes fantasy and archaeology, memory and myth, capturing the tension between digital emergence and historical weight. The balloon, rendered in vivid green and yellow, becomes a vessel of protest and imagination—rising above the ruins of patriarchal narratives and institutional silence.

🔮 Created in an era when digital art was still dismissed as ephemeral, this piece asserts its permanence. It is not just an image—it is a declaration. A pioneer’s cry. A feminist echo. A relic of resistance.
